Sqwid x True Stars Emerging Young Artists Series: Rosewolf is Redefining NFT Art at Just 14

At only 14 years old, Rosewolf is proving that the future of digital art is not only youthful, but also bold, fearless, and deeply authentic. A recent winner of the Spirit Mermaid Contest—hosted by Sqwid NFT Marketplace in collaboration with $HSM (HeartSparkle Mermaid)—Rosewolf has become a standout name in the Web3 creative scene. But make no mistake: this is no overnight success.

An Exclusive NFT by Rosewolf will be live on Sqwid, Reef Chain's NFT Marketplace this month. Stay close to mint it!

Her first digital works came to life during the pandemic, when a donated iPad introduced her to Procreate—and opened a whole new world of expression. Since then, she’s built an NFT portfolio that’s equal parts personal and powerful.

Her collections began with whimsical animal portraits, including a tribute to her dog Milly that completely sold out. But as she’s grown, so has her message.

Rosewolf’s more recent pieces dive into themes of empowerment, visibility, and gender equity. Inspired by the ocean and her own experience as a rugby player in Ireland, she’s using art to challenge male-dominated imagery in sports.

One of her proudest achievements? Having her drawing of girls playing rugby hung in her local clubhouse—right alongside the men’s team photos.

Her Ocean Girls series brings this mission to life, blending surf culture and activism in beautifully stylized, sea-swept illustrations. But she’s not stopping there. Motorsports, mountain biking, skating—anywhere girls are underrepresented, Rosewolf’s art steps in to make them visible.

Rosewolf’s journey isn’t just impressive for her age; it’s a case study in how digital platforms like Sqwid and supportive Web3 communities can empower emerging talent to take up space, tell their stories, and reshape the future of art.
